Barbie's Beginnings


If you don't know the history of Barbie I will give you the low down, she was manufactured by the American toy company Mattel  in March 1959 now there was an American woman called Ruth Handler who based Barbie on a German doll called Bilf Lilli.

These are 3 of a few of the new career dolls Mattel have come up with, and course we know women have done all the jobs the guys have done for years. but heads up to Mattel for coming up with something the younger generation of girls can play with and see nothing is impossible just because your a girl.



Barbie In Lingerie For Children


Barbie does not even wear panties or bras which I find a little odd but really do not see anything wrong with her sporting a nice set of underwear if it's like this.


But this underwear-clad doll is a big no no no this looks way too sexy and should only be for the adult collector .

Black Barbie Is She Really Black ?




Yes I think this barbie doll is very realistic how so you might ask, well OK she look's a bit hip hop diva bling bling but her look and her blond hair which by the way a lot of black women wear lace wigs to achieve the very same look . 



New Barbie With Curves

It great news that Mattel have upped their game and come out with a range of new barbie dolls that reflect real girls / women and have added tall ,short or shall I say petite which I am, dark barbies to the mix has well, one thing is for sure I wish I had this choice of dolls when I was a kid.
